Rev. Ridley Barron spoke a vital truth into the lives of students, staff, and faculty of Truett-McConnell College this morning as he expounded on the importance of forgiveness.

In order for God to be glorified through our lives, we must purpose within our hearts to forgive and also to put that forgiveness into action.
